Beyond Sunday | The Book of Ephesians | Episode 6 Pastors Carrie Botkin, JoAnn Johnson, and Frank Wooden

June 30, 2026 About this Conversation In this episode of Beyond Sunday, the team unpacks Ephesians 4:1–16 and what it actually looks like to live worthy of the calling we've received. After three chapters celebrating God's grace, they dig into the practical side of faith — protecting unity, embracing our differences, and using our unique gifts to help the Body of Christ grow in love and maturity. The conversation gets honest about what unity really costs, why diversity in the church is a strength rather than a threat, and how spiritual gifts are meant to build up the whole community rather than serve any one person. About Beyond Sunday Each episode features honest, meaningful conversations with Newbreak pastors as they reflect on the current sermon series, unpack moments that impacted them personally, and dive into topics they didn’t have time to fully explore on stage. The conversations get real as the hosts talk openly about faith, struggles, growth, and everyday life. Wherever you find yourself in your journey with Jesus, Beyond Sunday offers encouragement, honesty, and hope for living out your faith every day of the week.
